Notes:
Diphenylguanidine acceleration of sulfuration of natural rubber both in the presence and absence of dicumyl peroxide (DCP) has been studied. DPG enhances the rate of decomposition of DCP, and the crosslinking maxima due to DCP are lowered by DPG to some extent, which increases with the concentration up to a limiting value. The rate of sulfur decrease is very high and is dependent on DPG concentration but practically independent of the presence of ZnO and stearic acid. It is observed that with constant level of DCP and sulfur, crosslinking increases with the increase of DPG concentration and finally becomes additive when the molar proportion of DPG: S8 approximately equals 1:1. In presence of ZnO and stearic acid, with each increment of DCP concentration crosslinking is retarded for both systems. Mechanisms have been suggested in terms of polar and radical process.
